Profile:
Roy Dias had an inauspicious debut for Sri Lanka at Test level,
batting at number three; he was dismissed by Bob Willis without
scoring. However, in the second innings Dias displayed his
batting talents for all to see stroking an elegant 77. Dias was a
joy to watch at the crease, blessed with a wonderful sense of
timing, combined with a classical style. Already an experienced
first class cricketer when Sri Lanka gained Test status, Dias
formed the backbone of the batting along with Duleep Mendis in
the period following the Sri Lanka's inception. In the proceeding
test tour to Pakistan, Dias highlighted his class. Scoring 295
runs at 49.16, including 98 at Faisalabad and then following up
with 109 at Lahore, holding firm as the top order crumbled
around him in a the face of a withering barrage of pace bowling
from Imran Khan. In Sri Lanka's maiden test victory, and series
victory, over India at home in 1985/86, Dias' contribution was
decisive. Twin fifties in the second Test had helped set up
victory, then with Sri Lanka on the brink of oblivion in the
final test, Dias rescued Sri Lanka with a superlative 106,
ensuring a draw was attainable. Following retirement from the
playing side of the game, Dias maintained his profile in the game
coaching Sri Lanka for a period.
